    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Looking at that last picture, it appears that you have two right-side disks on your front wheel. :-k

It will work just fine, it only looks different.

.
 
I like it, very neat! I like the attention to detail with those covers making the seat pan meet up with the side covers. Good job!
 
Thank you very much! much time and effort put into getting the "lines" of the bike to look the way it should. However, I was riding yesterday and lost a side cover, didn't feel it or hear it, or see it leave. Im wondering if anybody has any laying around they would like to part with. as for right now is have to make a pair of custom ones.

Clean and simple. Thanks for sharing.
A little light strength thread locker will keep the covers from coming off again.

can't get to hook up needs a softer tire and wider but I have no more room for wider I burn out to the 60ft letting go at 4-5000rpm any suggestions?????:confused:
 
Thst is one funky 1150. Not in my taste, but it definitely looks to be well thought out and executed. Kind of reminds me of a V Max.
What are the triple clamps from?

Here's mine. '79 GS750. Has the wiseco kit and andrews s2 cams. Almost done, I'm having a little trouble choosing a seat that will flow with the 1100 tank. In the background you can see the other 79 I'm working on.
